Per Theater Chart Gets Real

June 21, 2011

A trio of documentaries led the way on the per theater chart starting with Buck. This filmed earned an average of $16,887 in four theaters, which is better than expected. Page One: Inside the New York Times opened with an average of $14,456 in two theaters, while JIG was right behind with an average of $14,086 in five. The overall box office leader, Green Lantern, also topped $10,000 on the per theater chart with an average of $13,935. The Tree of Life barely managed to stay ahead of the $10,000 mark with an average of $10,121; however, it is in its fourth week of release and it is playing in more than 100 theaters, so this is a fantastic result.

The only other new limited releases we have numbers for is The Art of Getting By, but it bombed with just under $700,000 in just over 600 theaters for an average of $1,113.

This past week also saw milestones reached for a few Per Theater Charts alumni:
